Data Protection Bill 2018: Report Stage
9:15 pm
Clare Daly (Dublin Fingal, Independent) | Oireachtas source
I had not mentioned amendment No. 81 which Deputy O'Callaghan has just mentioned. It is our amendment which we tabled because we spotted that the provision on regulations under section 59 to respect the essence of the right to data protection and to restrict the exercise of data subject rights only insofar as is necessary or proportionate was accidentally deleted by the committee. The fact the Government is reinstating this as part of its larger amendment in amendment No. 80 is a better thing and we support it. We are happy to withdraw that at this stage in support of the Government's amendment No. 80.
